Brain potential responses involved in decision-making in weightlessness

Abstract: The brain is essential to human adaptation to any environment including space. We examined astronauts’ brain function through their electrical EEG brain potential responses related to their decision of executing a docking task in the same virtual scenario in Weightlessness and on Earth before and after the space stay of 6 months duration. Astronauts exhibited a P300 component in which amplitude decreased during, and recovered after, their microgravity stay. This effect is discussed as a post-value-based decisi… Show more

“…More, even if there appears to be a consensus that P300 has multiple neural generators, the brain sources found in present study are compatible with previous findings in the literature indicating temporal-parietal junction and adjacent areas clusters 67 . Previous studies have found that P300 component also appear after response-locking EEG and is thought to vary with risk level, motivational and emotional outcomes 68 , 69 . As mentioned earlier, deception in this study is also related to risk, motivation, and emotion.…”

“…For example, Cebolla, A.M., et al proposed a study on scalp EEG in a weightless state, which indicated that the cerebellum and the vestibular network’s involvement in weightlessness might support the correction signals processing necessary for postural stabilization. Furthermore, they also demonstrated the cerebellar contribution to the P300 on Earth [ 6 , 7 ]. Andersen, L.M., et al proposed practical guidelines to optimize the detection of cerebellar activity with MEG and EEG [ 8 ].…”

“…Space missions critically depend on the cognitive, sensory-motor and emotional performance of the spacecraft's crew. Adverse effects can occur during space flights [1][2][3][4][5], especially for long-duration space missions [6], making early detection and countermeasures implementation highly relevant. Neurocognitive assessment of crew members to detect possible cognitive and behavioral conditions which might pose a risk for the mission is essential [7][8][9][10].…”

“…No systematic reports are available on the existence, nature, and extent of these interferences in in-flight extraterrestrial microgravity environments. Successful EEG studies have been performed and published on different aspects of the physiological and psychological impact of spaceflight conditions [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. However, skepticisms about the EEG signal quality and interferences remain.…”
